Oh, March. You beautiful, thrilling, infuriating month. Welcome back.
For the first time in almost 15 years, the Kansas basketball team will enter Selection Sunday without the title of Big 12 regular season champions.
The quest for 15 straight officially ended as Kansas was bullied by Oklahoma in Norman last Tuesday night. The streak is over.
However, the opportunity to do something special in the NCAA tournament is not.
It feels like just yesterday when many fans held little postseason faith in last year’s Kansas team. That team fell one game short of the national championship as Villanova hit 80 three-pointers in the Final 4 to beat them.
